Long story short (will try at least)....my daughter--a child of divorce--is on vacation for two weeks with her dad, then two weeks with me, and then on to band camp for the first time! She is stressed because she has to have about 7 songs memorized by the end of camp. She is using a very nice school owned tenor that she will be playing in marching band. She has it with her dad now so she can practice, but the problem with taking it with us is that the last week of our vacation we will be on a cruise. We can't leave it in the car. My husband found a storage facility inside the Orlando airport that will store it for us, but I was wondering if she can practice/work on her memorization on her alto, but using the tenor music. I wouldn't lug the tenor onto the cruise ship, but her alto case it much smaller, and I'd have no problem taking that on the ship (thank goodness she switched from the bari--that was a beast!).
Will playing the tenor music on the alto sax work? (I did a googling but found a lot on transposing music--I don't want her to have to do that because I think that will mess up her memorization).
Thank you so much...
